| steve | posted 19-Mar-1998 7:19pm What a BIZARRE question! I guess I'm relatively happy with the mind and body I've got now. (If I could trade a bit of IQ for becoming and remaining effortlessly buff, I'd be more tempted.) |
| dab | posted 19-Mar-1998 7:23pm I'm currently 5'11" and have no problem with my height but I could be 5'7" just as well. |
| Dolemite | posted 19-Mar-1998 9:13pm I think it would be neat to be this insanely smart midget, kinda like Willow. I let Willow and the other midgets out of my pants once in a while (down Willow, down!). However, it'd be cool to be immediately a couple inches taller, just to break six feet in a day and impress everyone. But I'm still growing and getting smarter from all the junk I eat (PJ sandwiches make me smart), so I'm very happy my current height/IQ situation. For Twanger: a couple means two. For others: sorry about my answer being on crack. |

| bill | posted 20-Mar-1998 9:12am I was going to say "stay the same", then I really thought about it. Given the chance, I probably would want to be a super-intelligent dwarf. I'd be a hit at parties, and I'd probably really enjoy scheming up a plot for world domination, mwa, ha, ha, ha, ha! ** Oh no, my comment way just like Dolemite's, I gotta go... |
| fiore | posted 20-Mar-1998 9:23am I would lose 20 points to get 2 more inches. I would love to be about 6 feet. Right now I'm about 5 10. |
| milktree | posted 22-Mar-1998 7:24pm It would be ok if I was 2" shorter anyway, cars are designed for smaller people. |
| hunter | posted 23-Mar-1998 3:18am I think I'm about as smart as I need to be and I would be concerned about emotional/mental stability, since it seems as though high mental function often goes along with some other severe problems. Nor do I particularly need to be taller for any reason. I would trade up to 4" for effortlessly buff, though. |
| jcdino | posted 25-Mar-1998 7:44pm I'm pretty happy with me the way I am. I definitely wouldn't trade IQ for inches and I'm smart enough to do what I need to do. Besides, my boyfriend is already a foot taller than me. |
| Artemis | posted 25-Mar-1998 7:47pm I think my IQ and my height are perfectly fine where they are, even though I have no idea what my IQ is, my height is 5'5". |
| joe | posted 25-Mar-1998 11:06pm height might get you laid but genius can change the world. I'm 6' so maybe i take height for granted. But until i was 19 i was always the shortest person in every group. |
| Twanger | posted 27-Mar-1998 3:57am I love the way it's assumed that it's good to be tall. I'd think about giving up some IQ points to be shorter. But if I can do that, and get smarter too, it's cool. ***Dolemite: ummm, where did that come from? Maybe you should post a survey with all the groudbreaking ideas you're having. |
| romkey | posted 27-Mar-1998 5:08pm i don't really believe that iq tests are very accurate determinants of intelligence that said, i'm pretty happy with both my height and my intelligence if you do trade height for iq, does your weight stay the same? |
| NYBookworm | posted 28-Mar-1998 3:57pm I'm quite happy with the way G-d made me, I don't see why I'd want to change myself (physically at any rate I might want to be more intelligent but It would probably make it even more difficult to be humble as G-d wants us to be if I was). ALso IQ points do not necassarily equal intelligence |
| jefff | posted 6-Apr-1998 12:05pm They're dinky, they're Pinky and The Brain (Brain brain brain)...NARF! |
| Pigeon | posted 7-Apr-1998 4:20pm I want to be a tree.. doesn't matter if your dumb if your a tree |
| daver | posted 14-May-1998 2:19pm 166 IQ and 6'0" I'm happy with both. Super-intelligent midgethood might be neat, but IQ != intelligence. If it was lose an inch and become 10% more intelligent, that would be different. |
| jjg | posted 17-May-1998 1:28pm IQ and knowledge are two different things. Also, it still wouldn't change my common sense. |
| reality | posted 12-Jun-1998 3:07pm odd.. it isn't my IQ that I am worried about, it is my ability to access what is there that bugs me. I am reasonably intelligent, but I could be a bitt smarter.. but I don't worry about it (much). |
| phi | posted 17-Jun-1998 11:48pm If I changed height, none of my clothes would fit! No, really, I have plenty of IQ points as it is. Really. |
| dpolicar | posted 13-Aug-1998 3:46pm I'm assuming for this question that "IQ" really measures intelligence, which it doesn't. I don't know my IQ. I could get into being a 5'tall genius but suspect that being a 4'tall supergenius would be a bit too much, so I picked option 2 (12"/120pts). Later: I'd trade several inches (say, up to 4) for buffness, but not smarts. |
| gilly | posted 14-Aug-1998 4:51pm I do ok as I am, thanks. I wouldn't mind having another inch or two; I'm not sure what good a higher IQ would be, but I wouldn't want to lower mine. |
